About sitting in San Ġwann

What sitting in San Ġwann looks like

San Ġwann's residential streets and quick access to the Pembroke garigue and Wied il-Qlejgħa make it a practical home base for daily dog walks. Sitters use the quieter streets of Tal-Mensija for short walks, the open spaces near the Birkirkara bypass for morning loops, or head to the nearby Pembroke side for longer off-lead walks on the garigue.

Sitters in San Ġwann typically build their book through a combination of recurring weekday walks, weekend boarding, and the long-travel weeks (summer, Christmas, Easter). The platform's rating system rewards consistency, so reply quickly to enquiries and always show up on time for the first few bookings.

Frequently asked

Sitter FAQs for San Ġwann

How much can I earn as a sitter in San Ġwann?
Maltese sitters set their own rates. Petme keeps a small platform fee out of what you earn, so sitters keep up to 90% of every booking. Earnings depend on service mix (boarding, walks, drop-ins) and how many recurring bookings you build.
What does Petme cover for sitters?
Every booking is covered by the Petme Protection Plan (up to €20,000 in vet expenses), the platform handles payment processing, ID verification builds trust with owners, and the rating system rewards consistent sitters with more visibility.
Do I need a kennel or licence to sit in San Ġwann?
Petme is a home-based model: pets stay in your home (boarding) or you visit theirs (drop-in / house sitting). No kennel required. For regular sitting income in Malta you do register as self-employed with the Maltese tax authority.
Is sitting demand year-round in San Ġwann?
Yes. Maltese demand is steadier than most European markets, with summer travel peaks, Christmas, Easter, and the August festa season as the busiest windows. Recurring weekday walks and drop-ins keep books full off-peak.
How do I get my first San Ġwann booking?
Apply, pass ID verification, build out your profile with clear photos and a thoughtful bio, and offer to do free meet-and-greets. A well-priced profile in San Ġwann typically gets the first booking within 1-2 weeks.
